Objectives: To evaluate the association of thoracic spine (TS) posture and mobility with TS pain.
Methods: Participants with TS pain reported maximum, average, and night pain in TS area, and pain summary score was calculated. Upright and sitting TS postures were evaluated by inspection. TS posture and mobility (flexion and extension) were recorded using an inclinometer and a tape measure, respectively. Correlations between posture and mobility assessments were calculated using Spearman rank correlation, the association of TS posture and mobility with TS pain by logistic regression analysis.
Results: The participants’ (n = 73, 52 females, age range 22–56) TS pain duration was 12 weeks on average. The correlations for measurements of TS posture and flexion mobility were higher than correlations of other TS measurements being between 0.53 and 0.82. Decreased extension mobility of the upper (from 1st to 6th TS segments; Th1–Th6) TS was associated with higher worst pain (OR 1.04, 95% CI 1.00–1.07) and whole TS with pain sum score (OR 1.05, 95% CI 1.01– 1.08). Less kyphotic whole TS was associated with lower pain sum score (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.92– 1.00). Greater flexion mobility of upper and lower (Th6–Th12) TS were associated with lower pain sum score (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.91–1.00, and OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.91–1.00, respectively).
Conclusions: Reduced thoracic extension mobility was associated with higher pain scores and the greater flexion mobility with lower pain scores. Future research is warranted to evaluate if treatments geared toward TS extension mobility improvements would result in lower TS pain.

Intra- and inter-rater reliability of thoracic spine mobility and posture assessments in subjects with thoracic spine pain
Takatalo, Jani; Ylinen, Jari; Pienimäki, Tuomo; Häkkinen, Arja (Biomed Central, 2020)Background: The thoracic spine (TS) has been neglected in the study of the spine despite its essential role in the stability and posture of the entire spinal complex. Therefore, there is an inevitable need to investigate ... -

Exercise may impact on lumbar vertebrae marrow adipose tissue : Randomised controlled trial
Belavy, Daniel L.; Miller, Clint T.; Owen, Patrick J.; Rantalainen, Timo; Connell, David; Hahne, Andrew J.; Ford, Jon J.; Trudel, Guy (Elsevier, 2022)Background Animal and human cross-sectional data suggest that bone marrow adipose tissue (MAT) may respond to mechanical loads and exercise. We conducted the first randomised controlled trial of exercise on MAT modulations ... -
Exercise for the intervertebral disc : a 6-month randomised controlled trial in chronic low back pain
Owen, Patrick J.; Miller, Clint T.; Rantalainen, Timo; Simson, Katherine J.; Connell, David; Hahne, Andrew J.; Trudel, Guy; Ford, Jon J.; Belavy, Daniel L. (Springer, 2020)Background context Muscle, bone and tendon respond anabolically to mechanical forces. Whether the intervertebral disc (IVD) can benefit from exercise is unclear. Purpose To examine whether exercise can beneficially ... -
Randomized Trial of General Strength and Conditioning Versus Motor Control and Manual Therapy for Chronic Low Back Pain on Physical and Self-Report Outcomes
Tagliaferri, Scott D.; Miller, Clint T.; Ford, Jon J.; Hahne, Andrew J.; Main, Luana C.; Rantalainen, Timo; Connell, David A.; Simson, Katherine J.; Owen, Patrick J.; Belavy, Daniel L. (MDPI, 2020)Exercise and spinal manipulative therapy are commonly used for the treatment of chronic low back pain (CLBP) in Australia. Reduction in pain intensity is a common outcome; however, it is only one measure of intervention ...
